I’m going to the official opening of the training ground as part of the bond package in a couple of weeks, I’ll report back on what it’s like and how good the canapés are…
Waiting with weary resignation for the urban legend to emerge that that bellend on the PA crept in after dark to bury a Brentford scarf under the main building, causing us untold years of ill-fortune.

Have the club booked a witch to curse it in the traditional QPR fashion?

I sneaked into Dean Gaffney’s house and did a shit in his kettle so we’re even.

Yeah, are they opened with a stick with a hook on it, or are they fully automated?
We question the owner’s commitment, obviously they can’t spend the money on players so tbh this is second best. Actually you could say 1st as this is not short termism. Sort of feel an exciting couple of weeks coming up and any potential signings need to see this place. Looks better than when I played there in the London Commercial League for B.A.

Not even second best for me. One of the huge missed opportunities in the Prem was we spent all the money on wnkr footballers and came back with exactly the same sub standard infrastructure. This looks great. Looking forward to seeing it.

Yep that’s basically what I said. Great to see a positive Clive ðŸ‘
Think I’ve said before whole family worked there when it was BA including myself. Some great times there fantastic events and the pitches back then were conference standard.

Yeh this is a huge positive. I'm just watching the videos on a loop and trying to forget the rest.
It should help with attracting players in future too. Harlington was embarrassing really, like a secondary school facility, and the temporary set up they had at Heston last year (apart from the pitches which are like carpets) was makeshift to say the least.

I used to play there too. Midweek in the Airport league and the Hanwell and District league. Some Saturdays too in the lower level teams. Pitches were great. Tom the groundsman, a dour Scotsman who you didn't want to upset, kept them in great condition. Any heavy rain and you weren't playing! I was seconded from my regular job to work on one of the big corporate events there too. Fond memories, looking forward to seeing how they've improved the old place.
A huge step up. For me, personally, a sound investment. Let's hope we can recruit the players to do it justice.
